Mā wai te mahi nei? – Who are we looking for?
We’d like to hear from you if you are early in your career with a mix of the following skills and experience – you may not have all of the following but if you think you meet some or most, we would definitely be keen to hear from you:
Ideally you will also have a good understanding of tikanga (Māori customs and protocols), with the ability to weave te ao Māori (the Māori worldview) into your work.

Please note: This is not a Foreign Policy/diplomatic rotational role. This is a Specialist role based in central Wellington, NZ.
While it is not usual for specialist staff to be ‘posted’ outside of NZ, from time to time a specialist role overseas becomes available at one of our embassies, high commissions, missions or consulates. To be considered for one of these positions you would need to apply and be considered via a competitive recruitment process.
If you do have an interest in an MFAT foreign policy/diplomatic career, you would be welcome to apply for this either via our graduate recruitment or mid-level foreign policy recruitment campaigns.
